On Valentine's Day, it started to snow outside. It had survived a winter, and there had been no snow on the most memorable days and on the coldest days, however, since the morning, the snowflakes have fallen without warning. And, from noon, the snow became heavier and heavier, as if we were trying to make up for all the ones that had not fallen this year.

"Will the snow affect the traffic at night?" asked my sister hesitantly, looking at the snowflakes outside the window.

"I'll know when the time comes, if you're worried about affecting the traffic, you can go early, but fortunately it's the weekend!"

"Well, thankfully it's the weekend. My sister whispered.

Ever since we discussed the birthday party, Yui and I have once again fallen into an awkward period without dialogue, and although there is a feeling that my sister seems to have been trying to say something to me, in any case, most of our conversations have been limited to scattered and unnutritious speeches like today.

Sister Yui and I tacitly agreed that we had a lot to eat at the party for dinner, and we didn't eat much at noon. However, only we know that this is not the reason.

I was nervous about the unknown future at the same time.

"Speaking of which, what kind of gift did Xiaohe prepare for Xiao Muxi's seniors? I went out for a walk before, but I really didn't understand, so I could only buy a scarf very simply, but at this time, I always feel a little embarrassed to give a scarf or something! After all, spring is coming!"

"It can be used tomorrow as well. ”

"Well, that's right. So what did Xiaohe prepare?"

"I've never been good at preparing gifts, Yui-san knows. ”

"Tell me about it!"

"Uh, the gloves I bought. ”

“……”

"Excuse me, old lady. ”

"Ah, well, that's it, I didn't expect the gift that Xiaohe prepared was so good, um, girl?"

I think it's better not to complain.

"It's almost time to go, the invitation says it's going to start at four o'clock in the afternoon, and if there's a problem with the train, you'll have to consider other means of transportation or walk over—"

"—You don't have to walk over there, right?"

"Then let Dad drive us?"

"Let's talk about it then, it's not sure that the train will be delayed!"

"yes, yes!"

It's extremely embarrassing.,It seems to be a conversation for the sake of conversation.,Yubihama Kazuya and Yui Yui.,Until the departure was trying to ease the relationship with each other and reduce the feeling of tension.,But,Little success.。

Although the snow didn't decrease at all, the train was not delayed, so it was a little too early for us to arrive near Kogi's senpai's house.

"I'm always a little embarrassed to arrive too early, and I have a look of being overly expectant, it will make us seem to be falling behind, right?" the sister suggested, "I see that there seems to be a café near my senior's house, where we can have a coffee for a while, and then go in when a few companions have already arrived, so that it won't be too embarrassing." ”

"Yes. ”

Although I've always emphasized the psychological preparation for making a decision, however, if it was to get along with the three of Yui-sama and Kogi Saku's seniors, I thought I would explode, so I naturally agreed to my sister's opinion.

The two of them went into the café, chose a place by the window, and drank coffee absentmindedly while looking at the direction of the senior's house.

I always have the impression that people around me always have a strange fetish for coffee, or they especially enjoy bitterness, so they must order black coffee, or they especially like to fill up the coffee with sugar, so that the bitterness is almost non-existent, which makes my average bubble coffee pie feel a little different - in fact, I have thought about it, and it is clear that I am the most normal, isn't it?

Sometimes, my sister chooses black coffee because she deliberately wants to pretend to be mature, but this time, her choice is the same as mine - probably only when she doesn't care about these details, will she reveal her true thoughts about the choice, right?

"Speaking of which, in fact, Xiaohe and I rarely come to the coffee shop alone, right?"

"Actually, there is, when I am tired of shopping with you, I will go to the dessert shop to find a place to sit and rest. ”

"But it's rare to come to a coffee shop, isn't it?"

"It's not intentional this time, is it?"

"Okay!" my sister nodded awkwardly, adding a packet of sugar to her coffee nonchalantly.

"Uh, old lady, this time you didn't order black coffee!"

"Uh-huh-" My sister looked at the light-colored coffee in her cup in a daze, and then smiled wryly, "Forget it, let's just order a cup of chocolate." ”

"It's sweet, but it's completely different from chocolate. ”

"Just drink it!"

"It's a low request. ”

"Speaking of which, Kowa-"

"Huh?"

"No, forget it. ”

"Okay. ”

This is already an unknown number of times in the past few days that my sister has provoked a topic in such a way and ended it in a hurry. Timid, a little embarrassed, want to express it, but don't know how to express it.

There were many times when I tried to tell my sister to tell her what she wanted to say, but I didn't know how to say it.

It's as if asking Yui-san to come with me to Kogi-senpai's birthday party, and making a tough plea here has exhausted all my courage to ask for my sister, and I can't bear to urge my sister to say what she wants to say.

Today, however, it may be different, both for me and for Yui Yubihama.

"Xiaohe, I have something to say to you. She took a deep breath and spoke again.

I don't know why, but I can feel that this time, Yui Yuiri Hihama was able to hold on to the end.

"Say, I've been listening!"

"Well, the other day, the day I went to buy a gift for Kogi Senpai, I met Kogi Senpai, and then, she told me something, about the night of the concert. ”

I listened to my sister explain everything to me intermittently, about how she met Yukina Kogi, about this fact that Kogi Sao's predecessor inadvertently told her.

"So, in fact, what I want to say is, hasn't Senior Xiao Mu Shu also explained it clearly? The events of that night were just our bad luck, so Xiao He didn't have to be depressed about what happened that night at all. ”

"Hmm"

I don't know how to describe how I felt when I knew this fact, I was surprised, relieved, and maybe more indifferent.

In retrospect, the damage that night did to me was actually just a bloody blood that didn't bring a weighty result, right? However, if it weren't for that night, without the thoughts I had about my sister on the train that night, and without the argument with Haruki Kitahara that night, I wouldn't have been able to make up my mind to make a final decision like I am now.

"So, I mean, Kowa can rest assured, right?"

"Rest assured?"

"Well, it was all a misunderstanding that night, and if there was a misunderstanding, it would be easier to deal with it now?"

"Now it's easy?"

"yes, it's easy to do now, a lot of problems can be solved, right?"

"Solve the problem?"

I still looked at Yui in confusion.

My sister, too, looked at me a little bewildered.

"So, I just thought, if Kowa is a little impulsive, well-"

Finally, she said.

"Impulsively?"

I kept repeating what my sister had said, because I really didn't know what she was trying to say for a while.

"Xiaohe—" My sister looked at me earnestly, as if begging me not to let her speak out on her own initiative.

However, after a while, she noticed my blank expression

"That is to say, I think that if Xiaohe feels embarrassed, if Xiaohe is just forcing himself to make a decision quickly, Xiaohe can actually not be so anxious!" Finally, my sister gritted her teeth, as if she had exhausted all her strength, and said her words.

I looked at my sister in a daze, and it took me a long time before I understood what she meant.

That's right, that night, I didn't see Xiao Mu Yu's senior, it was just an unfortunate accident, and even everything that happened was just an unfortunate accident. So, I just had to think that nothing happened that night, and Yubihama didn't go back to find Yukina Kogi, but happily enjoyed the family's hot spring trip with Yui Yui, and I didn't have to think about what Yui Yubihama was thinking, and I didn't have to wonder if my feelings had deviated.

It's like before the New Year's visit, when I could still choose gifts with my sister generously, knock on my sister's head and say she was stupid, and jokingly complain about my sister's carelessness.

If this is an accident, if we ignore this accident, in fact, we can live less tired.

In the same way, this birthday party in front of me doesn't have to be regarded as a burden, it is regarded as an invitation made to me by Xiao Mu Yu's seniors, this is a good opportunity to break the ice, slowly, and re-establish an intimate relationship with the person you like, and then, it will come naturally, maybe it will be a confession, maybe it will be the end.

In fact, everything can be solved without such a drastic way.

That's what my sister is hinting at me.

Yes, during this time, I have been emphasizing that I am ready and determined for this decision, but in fact, the more I emphasize this, the more it proves that I am not ready, right?

Do you know who I really like?

Do I know if I should continue to stick to the person I've always loved, or should I pay attention to my sister's unusual concern?

I don't know, if I knew, why would I have to make up my mind with such a very ritualistic act?

If you know, you can say anything at any time, right?

So, like my sister said, a little relaxation, maybe it's okay too?

I rubbed my temples, collected my thoughts, and looked out the window, and then I saw the first guest who had gone to Kogi's house besides us.

A boy named Haruki Kitahara, holding flowers, was slowly walking towards the door of Kogi's house.
